WM6 sketchyness - HTC Hurricane

Hello,
I have just done the following:
-Unlocked phone.
-Unlocked the super CID.
-Upgraded the SPL
-Ran mtty and formatted, and then installed WM6
The problem is WM6 is sketch for the following reasons.
-Its tempremental. I mean sometimes it turns on and it says "power off".
-Joystick is not working all of the time.
-Quite a bit of it is in Chinese.
The question(s) is:
-Where can I get a good working version of WM6.
-If I am re doing the ROM then can you tell me if all I need to do is run mtty, and format and install?
Cheers
John

Thanks for the reply.
Its in Chinese though I think.
Can I just change regional settings to make it English?
Or do I need a language pac?
If I can, can someone or you tell me what options it would be as I do not speak Chinese lol.
Cheers

it is in english!
start - 7 - 0 - 2
there you can change the language

HOWTO: change a Softbank X01HT from Japanese to English

I bought a Softbank X01HT after finding this site, and as a total WM5 newbie, decided I would switch the phone from Japanese to English. It took me 5 days of lurking around this site, but I finally did it. Here's a summary of my efforts for those of you who dare follow:
Unlock the phone
I went here to get it done: http://www.imei-check.co.uk
Download and Install English ActiveSync from Microsoft
Get it here:http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/activesync/default.mspx
I'm using v4.2
Disable Advanced USB Networking
If ActiveSync keeps disconnecting on USB, then go to Settings > Connections > Usb to PC, and disable advance network funtctionality.
Here's the thread that describes the problem: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=276783
Flash with an English ROM
Here's the post that I followed: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=280566&page=7
Here's the ROM for JASJAM_WWE_1.20.305.3_1.20.305.104_1.07.03.10_ship
Note: the ROMs and the ExtendedROMs are not the same. The Flash will take about 30 mins. It will reset when done, and then ask you to align the screen. I just did as I was told. when done, it automatically started to load the included ExtendedROMs.
Unhide Extended ROM folder
Install fit4cat Hermes Tweaker, I used v1.1a. Get it here: http://www.fit4cat.de/thread.php?threadid=56
From the earlier post, enable 'HSPDA settings' and check all the boxes on the 'security' tab (mount extROM, unlock extROM, allow non certified apps)
Install the Softbank Extended ROMs
Get the Softbank Extended ROMs from this page: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_ExtendedRoms
Move the contents of the folder to your /ExtendedROM folder then do a HARD reset
How to do a HARD Reset
The instructions for a HARD reset are located here: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Resets
Make sure you see the menu with the press 'R' to reset. If you don't, you didn't do it right. Try it again.
Apparently, after a Hard reset, you will automatically start the 'autorun' script for the Softbank Extended ROMs, and this will add the settings for using data over the Softbank 3G network. If you still don't get a data connection to the Softbank Network, you can add it manually. Read this page for details (#17): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=280566&page=2
Install a Registry Editor
I chose the one included in the Resco Explorer. Even though your processor is by Samsung, make sure you download the CABs for the ARM/Xscale processor.
Get it here: http://www.resco.net/pocketpc/explorer/indepth.asp
Note: you have to install the Explorer and the Registry Editor plugin
Do the Japanese Keyboard Hack
The key thing to remember is that even though your Hermes speaks English, the keyboard uses a Japanese layout. The code for Japanese is 0x0411
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Keybd] "Locale"= 0411 (Hex, not String)
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Oem\Qwerty] "Layout"= 20411 (Hex)
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\keyboard layout\Preload] "Default"= e0010411 (Hex)
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\keyboard layout\Preload\1] "Default"= e0010411 (Hex)
Install Japanese Language Fonts
Now that your Hermes speaks English, you can't see Japanese Web pages. This CAB will fix it. Get it here: http://asukal.seesaa.net/article/6912738.html
Install BTaudio Hack
This hack lets you route the PDA audio to your Bluetooth headset. Without it, you can only use the headset for the phone. It worked fine with my Motorola HS850 set to the "Hands Free" BT profile. I used the version from this post (includes a link to the CAB): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1044017#post1044017
and Voila! you are ready to go.
Of course, before you start you should read the following:

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_UpgradeFAQ
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_UpgradeProblems
The above is a summary of what I did, and it worked for me. But, of course, nothing is warranted and proceed at your own risk. yada yada.
good job man. really appreciate your contribution

No need to unlock if you don't want to expend the 20GBP, you just need to donwgrade to bootloader 1.04.
1) Download M3100v3cUnlock.exe from imei-check, but do not pay ;-)
2) Turn phone on and connect to pc (green ActiveSync icon in system tray)
3) Start M3100v3Unlock.exe and close it when it asks for the .unl file with your imei, the device should stay in bootloader (tri-color) screen or a white screen.
4) disable USB connections on activesync
5) Run the extracted 1.04 bootloader-only upgrade, version will be shown as 9.99.999.9 just click next / update.
6) When upgrade ends device will softreset and you'll have bootloader 1.04 in your device which will allow you to flash any rom without CID checking
Then follow the rest of the language switching process with the good mixersoft explanation
4) disable USB connections on activesync
5) Run the extracted 1.04 bootloader-only upgrade, version will be shown as 9.99.999.9 just click next / update.

About this step, it means I have to unplug usb cable from pc before uses bootloader ?
thank you.
No, sorry if I was not clear, it means you have to right click on active sync icon, select "connection settings" and disable the checkbox for "Allow USB connections".
thank you. I will try.
Hello! pof;
3) Start M3100v3Unlock.exe and close it when it asks for the .unl file with your imei, the device should stay in bootloader (tri-color) screen or a white screen.

I use M3100v3Unlock.exe after it asked me for .unl file I close it and device automatically reset. Then I use 1.04 bootloader-only upgrade and try to upgrade
(with disable USB conection on activesync) it says error because can not find conection. How will I do?
Thank you.
Just tell the upgrade utility to continue without verifying... or do not disable usb connections in activesync, iit is not really that important, upgrade will go on equally
I tried to do for many times but failed. And this the message from upgrading.
Error 256 here is the image of it.

What happens if you follow my steps in post #3 but do not do "step 4"? (ie: do not disable usb connections in activesync).
The update should be fine after that, only that it starts from bootloader not from OS and the rom utility says it cannot find the "current" version, but should follow as normal.

Please help me.
thanks so much.

Do not let the device reset, disconnect it from usb (don't worry, it is safe), and close the unlocker then. When unlocker is closed reconnect the device and follow with the extracted-bootloader-1.04 upgrade.
Works!! Thanks
It worked for me. Thank you for your time and energy... Its working on Softbank network in Kanto. I just need to install the .cabs for Japanese. I cant read Kanji very well but it just looks better than Obakemoji..
Thank you very much Pof.
I follow your last post and it work for me.
When my device was blank screen I dis connect usb cable and then
run bootloader upgrade( not tick Allow usb connection in Active sync).
From now, I will start to flash rom and then install Thai and Japanese SIP.
Actually, some Thai sip can use with WM5 Japanese OS can input(visual keyboard) Thai word
but can not read homepage or use handwriting.
thank you again Pop for your help.
HI
I have a question about this.
After language change to English the phone work 100% fine?
All applications, all softbank services and etc ?
I wish to change my phone to this X01HT, but i will do this only if I can use the phone 100% in english.
Thanks

Yes, it will be flashed with an english rom, you will be able to use it in english without problems
One more question for confirmation before flash.
Install the Softbank Extended ROMs
Get the Softbank Extended ROMs from this page: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index...s_ExtendedRoms
Move the contents of the folder to your /ExtendedROM folder then do a HARD reset
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
in this step, it means that after finish flash rom I have to put Softbank Extended Roms into Extended Roms? How about data in Extended Rom before I put Softbank Extended Roms into I have to delete them all? Or no data in Extended Roms after flash? If it is emtpy extended rom I see.
Wow this is amazing. I did a major Homer Simpson this week when I picked up my new X01HT and didn't think to ask the sales lady whether it could switch to English. My Japanese is REALLY basic, so THANK YOU so much for this thread and to all the guys contributing.
I agree with taicyber, my question is the same....are the Extended ROMs nessisary? Basically I don't care about "extra features" etc etc. I just want a working phone in English which doesn't kill my contract with Softbank in anyway (apart from the fact that doing this will void any warrantee).
Otherwise awesome post and I can't wait to get stuck into this....heres hoping I don't brick it....lol.
Thanks for answer me!
Another question.
You know if have any others language to install ?
English is just fine , but Brazilian Portuguese is my primary language. Any chance to change to Portuguese too ?
Or Spanish?
Thanks again

No, it is not necessary, you can skip the extended rom step if you want. And if you are not happy after this, you can install the cabs from the softbank extended rom (or any other) later.

The languages available are the ones on the shipped roms on the wiki:

You can flash whichever you like, it doesn't have to be JasJAM rom as pointed on the first post of this thread, this was just an example.

[HOW TO] Upgrading to WM6 - A checklist of how it works

Hello everybody.
I had installed "TouchFLO Charmer WM6_GER ver. 2.8 BETA by mschmitz" over an WM5 T-Mobile MDA compact II (Charmer) and everything worked great.
see link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=331142
Now i cooked my own ROM (Charmer WM6) with some improvements and correct working German Input methods.
see Link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2075053#post2075053
As there are several "how-to" here but all are spread around this forum, i will try to give a checklist how you probably not kill your device.
Print this checklist and search the forum for the how-to's.
Prerequisitions:
If something goes wrong, be sure to have a ROM of your Phoneprovider (e.g. T-Mobile WM 5 AKU 2.2 for a T-Mobile device).
If you sdo not have an original ROM, you can use this one to flash back to WM5 (i used this, do not worry that it is english): http://www.tm-phonedownloads.com/files/RUU_Compact ll_2060227_20602110_021921_T-MobileUK_Ship.exe
Backup your data! All will be lost after upgrading, or if anything goes wrong. You can use Sprite Backup (the only tool that allows upgrading from different WM versions - eg. from WM5 to WM6 - but you wil loose SMS. Use PPCPIMBackup Freeware to backup SMS).
Always use the corrrect ROM (do not use e.g. a MDA III ROM on an MDA II)
I also recommend to delete your Active Sync Partnership after upgrade (Active Sync/File/Delete Mobile Device) and let Active Sync setup a new one (otherwise you may have problems with File sync, sometimes an error pops up).
If you have problems to sync with outlook, it might be a problem with the restored data of SPRITE BACKUP as WM5 has a different database than WM6.
In case you geet an error "Error 8007000e" or similar do the following:
1) Hard Reset
2) Do NOT connect to Active Sync !!!
3) Restore your personal data (If you use Sprite backup select Merge, Level 1 but do NOT select "Migration Data" whern you get the filetree)
4) On your PocketPC start the program "Active Sync" (still NOT connected to PC)!
5) Go to Menu/Options and DELETE the partnership (e.g. "Windows PC").
All Syncroniced data will be deleted on the PocketPC (Contacts, Appointments, etc..), but they are still available in OUTLOOK on your PC.
6) Thereafter delete your Partnership also on the PC (Active Sync - File/elete Mobile Device).
7) Now connect your PocketPC to the Desktop PC and the Outlook data will be syncronized again without error.
You can try to start at point 4) maybe you do not need a hardreset/backup again, try....
After upgrading you should always delete the partnerships....
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now the upgrading steps. Make sure to check them all!
1) Unlock your device (CID and SIM). You have to CID unlock your device, or otherwise you cannot install a ROM that is e.g. not T-Mobile on an T-Mobile MDA.
How?
First of all you have to check what device (G3 or G4) and what Bootloaderversion (IPL/SPL) 1.x or > 2.x you have.
SOFT reset your device and note the red numbers that come.
If you have something like
IPL: 1.12 (or 1.12.000)
SPL 1.12.0000
you have an G3 device.
If IPL or SPL ends with 1 (e.g. 1.12.0001), you have an G4 device.
(0 is G3, 1 is G4)
Now check the first number.
1.12.xx is an Bootloader version 1 and 2.12.xx is 2, and so on.
I had an G3/Bootloader V1.x device, so I CANNOT say if it works for other devices.
For a G3 device you have to use Lockiwiz2b to SIM/CID unlock your device (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=249474).
For a G4 device you have to use Lockiwiz3 to SIM/CID unlock (dont know if it works)
Its easier to unlock an 1.xx. device, so unlock before upgrading (even with an official ROM)
You will NOT loose your data as no HARD reset is necessary. Lockiwiz will not harm your system (if you do the right thing).
2) Now that you have CID unlocked your device, check your Bootloader Version. WM6 can only be installed with an V2 Bootloader (IPL/SPL 2.x.xxx) or higher!!.
So if you have e.g. IPL/SPL 1.12.xx, you first have to upgrade your device with a more recent WM5. I installed T-Mobile WM5 AKU 2.2 and thereafter i had 2.20.xx
3) WM6 cannot be installed over WM6 !!!
If you allready have a WM6 on your Charmer, DOWNGRADE to WM5, thereafter install the new or updated WM6!
4) Install ROM and enjoy.
If soething went wrong, you can save your device by going to Bootloader mode (push and hold camera button and reset with stylus. When you see the 3 colored Screen, release Camera Button. Then you are in bootloader mode and you can flash the original ROM vie your PC and ActiveSync (thats why you should have a WM5 ROM by the hand)
Summary:
1) Check what device you have (G3/G4)
2) Check what Bootloader Version you have (1.xx.xx or > 2.xx.xx)
3) Unlock CID (and SIM) with Lockiwiz02 (G3) or Lockiwiz03 (G4)
If this did not work, STOP here and forget it, nothing is lost until here! If your device is not CID unlocked you will kill your device with a "non vendor" ROM
4) If your bootloader (IPL/SIP) is 1.xx.xx, first upgrade to 2.xx.xx via an official WM5 ROM upgrade (or check XDA-Developers ROMs), otherwise device is dead
5) If you allready have an WM6 on your device, downgrade to WM5 first!
6) Install WM6 and enjoy.
Regards
Ridingshark
You dont need to CID unlock the device to upgrade to WM6. In fact, CID unlocking works only on 1.xx bootloader, and once you've bought a device with 2.xx, you can't go back.
That's why, instead of cid unlocking, you can just use NO_ID RUU, which bypasses checking the VendorID in the flashing process. You can find it here: http://www.windowsceportal.hu/tartalom/programok/htc_charmer_upgradeut_noid.zip
Other than that, its a great thread. Making it sticky.

Hello amoor.
I also had Bootloader version 1 and simply used the official AKU 2.0 upgrade from T-Mobile from their homepage.
Thereafter it was Bootloader Version 2.
If you do not have an original ROM, you can use this WM5 (Do not worry that it is in english): http://www.tm-phonedownloads.com/files/RUU_Compact ll_2060227_20602110_021921_T-MobileUK_Ship.exe.
Thereafter you can upgrade to WM6.

SoftBank X01HT Locked or unlocked?

Hi.
I tried to find this on the forum and wiki, but i couldn't, so i want to ask.
I got a used Softbank X01HT, and seller said it was unlocked, but when i put in my sim i can do things for about 30 seconds, and then there comes a U-SIM screen and it asks me to enter something, i guess ( It's in japanese ).
How can i get this to go away? Is it even unlocked?
ROM: 1.33.761.4
Radio: 1.16.00.00
When i make call to phone i does to through and people can all even though U-SIM screen is there, and when people call, it is possible to go to the menues and such.. But when they hang up it goes back to U-SIM screen.
Please help
I have already read the Post april X01HT thread, though it is not relevant in this case because this is model from 2006.
Thank you
this is SIM unlocked phone (radio version 1.16.00), but your Windows Mobile ROM is the original SoftBank Japanese version that enforces USIM message...
You can flash to some other Windows Mobile ROM, but make sure you check Hard-SPL thread first (sticky in Hermes upgrading etc)
Hi thank you again!
I read something like that in the SIM unlock thread.
So i just need to install Hard-SPL and then flash a ROM?
Do i also need to do CID unlock? (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=293665)
I would like to be able to write japanese with the phone, so is that possible if i flash? I saw a thread about installing japanese input/output support, is that possible to install on every rom?
And can you reccomend a rom or post link to ROM you think i should install?
THANK YOU! can't wait to start using it.
Now i just tried the Hard-SPL thing. But i get Update error 260 saying my device is not connected. I have ActiveSync 4.5 open and i have synced..
so i don't know.
I don't know if it has anything to do with the USIM screen being on all the time?
I see Active sync closing down as soon as it starts updating.. but then it can't update, right?
easiest way is to use SoftBank SIM for flashing everything, that way you avoid USIM message...
if you dont have SoftBank SIM available, search for welcome.exe on this forum.
SoftBank put a software SimLock in the ROM which can be removed with welcome.exe from imei-check unlocker. (http://www.imei-check.co.uk/m3100unlock.php) Start it up with you phone connected to USB and ActiveSync enabled... After the program asks for some password file, just close it! (close dos prompt window)
About Japanese IME (kanji & kanna input), i prefer flashing some newer English WM6 ROM + installing separate Japanese IME from cab. Old SoftBank's ROM is very slow and limited...
Super CID is just there if you flash HardSPL....
HI, thank you!
I found out that the USIM screen goes away if you just press on the signal bar and say that you don't want to receive signal.. den i can ue it.. And then i could do the Hard-SPL which i did with no problem. thank you!
Ah so if i just download that program and close it down at that time the USIM screen with never come again?
Yea i want to flash it to newer. But i'm not sure which one because i've heard a lot of people broken their phone :/
could to give me a link to a few "good" English WM6 ones?, though i there is probablt many.
i will try out the imei-check thing now ^_^!
Once you flash HardSPL; when you want to flash only Windows Mobile ROM only you dont have to worry about bricking (destroying) your phone. Only flashing different radio could be dangerous.
For the version, you have to find out yourself, there are so many... Check Hermes Mobile 6 threads, there are even some special Japanese cooked ROMs if i remember correctly. Also check user signatures for what versions are different people using...
thanks so much! i managed to get the USIM screen gone with your help.
Ahh i see, but install new version wont it also change the radio? wasn't that dangerous?(sorry if i ask dumb question)
so if i chose this for example: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=359458 i can still make it with Japanese IME?
i think i will try hehe!
that link you provided is Schap's WM6 Pro 4.31 ROM... It is one of the most stable out in the wild, and it comes without radio, so flashing that one should be safe.
Oh ok thank you! then i will try this.
Last question before i do anything
This that ROM it is still possible to do the Japanese IME thing?

It explains something of getting japanese on phone, was this what you meant by japanese IME? or is there an other method, if yes, please telle me/ give link.
Now time to have your Hermes speak Japanese
Japanese fonts
Use the excellent work from Asukal, that you can find here:
http://www.asukal.jp/WM5/LetsJapanNo5.zip
I did have a problem with it: once I executed it, I could not sync with my Exchange server (Quite a pain for my push email account...)
Asukal found the solution: edit the registry, and change
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Mobem\CE-Star] "MyNLS" = "\windows\wince.nls"
Japanese input
Not using for myself, but these work perfectly (I tried):

*** EDIT
If you prefer a Japanese input without the annoying "Floating bar", ie just the same input way as your original WM5 Softbank ROM, just downlaod and install the "MS IME31 J" link from Asukal's page:

THANK YOU!
That solution you mention should work fine, but newer solution is available. Check http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=445550
Hi! THank you very much! i was finally able to flash the ROM!!
And i have installed the Japanese fonts and Input thing!
It works. but after install i can not sign onto MSN Live Messenger. Is there anyway to fix this problem?Maybe i should change something in Regedit?? Or should i uninstall the fonts again? :/
It gives me this message: There's a Connectivity problem. Make sure you're in an area with good reception and try again.
I have tried over and over and WIFI is up and working..
So any answer i would be so greatful and finally be able to use the phone like i dreamed of !
Thank you.
sorry, i dont use msn, i have no clue about it...
明けましておめでとう。
Ok thank you anyway!!
明けましておめでとう〜
良い年でありますように♪o(^-^)o

[Q] HTC Radar, WP 7.8, please help troubleshoot 8858.136 install

Hello XDA wizzards!
I have an issue with an HTC radar. (TMoUS not unlocked or HSPL equiped - box stock before CAB updates)
I have CAB updated my radar CAB by CAB (doing one upgrade at at time) to get me to 8858.136
Phone works, sort of, and I wold like some troubleshooting help. (will take calls, and recieve text messages)
The phone will not let me access certain screens, like the "about" screen to check installed firmware. It takes the selection like it is accepting it, then flashes back to the screen where the selection started. Same respoonse for a number of things, like messages.
I have a feeling it is language related, but I cannot get it to take any 8858.136 language CAB updates. (phone shows as having Deutsch, English, Espanol, Francis, and Italiano installed. )
Is there a CAB update that can fix this? Did I miss something silly? Can I get back to the original OE ROM and try again?
Any help would be appreciated.
I forgot to add, I am currently at SPL - 4.6 .175006.2(140733)
MID is: PI06110
